also this requires page to save first and then do a OCR ......whereas in ABBY you can do OCR on the fly ...i.e you launch application and then you select a area and you click OCR to get the text.......This will useful for web pages which you dont require to save.

Fujitsu I think? Used to give free OCR software away when you bought a scanner, no idea if it's free to download off their site or what but you could have a look.
